TEN STARS...because I can 😉
A re-read of one of my favourite books is something I will always enjoy. Now that I'm a fan of audiobooks, it has become even more enthralling. I'm experiencing the book through another's eyes. If the narrator is good, they can portray the highs and lows exactly the right way. Rosalyn Landor has become my favourite narrator in historical romances. Her voice is soothing, her ability to change characters is seamless and accents seem no obstacle. I am carried away while listening to the story and she makes me see things I miss when reading.
Devil in Winter is one of the BEST stories I've ever read/listened to. The metamorphosis of both Evie and Sebastian is remarkable. Normally, we may be treated to a wallflower turning into a butterfly or a rake turning into a dutiful and loving husband, but in this case, we get both. I loved seeing them grow and become better people.
It was a five-star read and it's a five-star listen, so I'm giving it a 10-star rating...because I can. 😁

Do you have to read this series in order or can this one stand alone?

Aw, this book is one of my all time faves as well 💖 and I re-read this book a couple of times 💖 Lovely review and Merry Christmas Stacey! 💖💋

Thank you, sweetheart. Merry Christmas to you and yours. All the best for the new year. :-) <3
LOVE this Stacey! I didn't even think to Audio her historicals but such a great idea to get to enjoy them all over again! I want!

The narrator can definitely make or break a re-read but I've found that Rosalyn Landor has enhanced the experience every time. If you do try, I hope you enjoy it as much as I did. :-) <3
Just added it to my 'to read list', thanks for the review Stacey.

If you enjoy this one and don't mind reading out of order, it will definitely be worth checking out the rest. They're all very different. :-)
I love this one, too, especially shy Evie. I hope to re-read it again some day. For some reason, I've avoided listening to historical audiobooks.

A beautiful talking voice that's very easy to listen to. :-)
Omg YES!!!! To all of the above: Yes! (Sometimes reading your reviews is like seeing my own thoughts in print! 😄)
